I use bitwig and davinci and they work great. not sure what you mean by “applications that aren’t complete janky shit.” there are a ton of applications available on linux, both paid and free, and their quality varies as much as anywhere else.
Just switch to CachyOS and so far I’ve noticed improved performance if anything (on a 3080 10gb). The latency difference between it and Windows is just unreal.
That’s the case for DX11 or older games but any DX 12 game it’s 20 to 15 percent less performance and that’s a no go for me. Once it gets addressed, then I’ll consider switching.
Maybe it’s system to system, or something with the older nvidia drivers, but I’ve specifically noticed the improved performance in Expedition 33 and Jedi: Fallen Order which I think are both DX11/12?
I don’t use that shitty application. Just use Linux.
If there are Linux applications that aren’t complete janky shit, I’ll switch.
I need a multitrack DAW recorder that understands older and newer audio interfaces and a good multi-camera video editor.

I’ll switch to Linux when there isn’t a performance trade off for using an Nvidia GPU.

Looks like they are working on it.
